Ayat 26. Tomorrow they will come to know, who is the liar, the insolent one!

Ayat 30. Then, how (terrible) was My Torment and My Warnings?

Ayat 31. Verily, We sent against them a single Saihah (torment - awful cry, etc.), and they became like the dry stubble of a fold-builder.

Tafseer of Surah Al-Qamar (The Moon) Ayat 26 to 31. Ah! they will know on the morrow, which is the liar, the insolent one! 27. For We will send the she-camel by way of trial for them. So watch them, (O Salih), and possess thyself in patience! for she-camel as a trial or test among selfish people who tried to monopolize water and pasture as against the poor. 28. And tell them that the water is to be divided between them: Each one´s right to drink being brought forward (by suitable turns). See 26:155-156. All were to have water in due turn. It was to be no one's monopoly. And certainly, the gates were not to be shut against the poor or their cattle. 29. But they called their companion, and he took a sword in hand, and hamstrung (her). 30. Ah! how (terrible) was My Penalty and My Warning! 31. For We sent against them a single Mighty Blast, and they became like the dry stubble used by one who pens cattle. See 7:78, the same phrase "single Blast" used for the signal for the Resurrection in 36:53. In the case of Thamud, the destruction seems to have been caused by a severe earthquake accompanied with a terrible rumbling noise. 5152 They became like dry sticks such as are used by herdsmen in making pens or enclosures for their cattle. 

English Translation of Hadith

Hazrat Abdullah bin Zam'ah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) giving a speech when he mentioned the she-camel (of Prophet Salih PBUH) and the man who had killed her. Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) said: "When the most wicked man among them went forth (to kill the she-camel).' (91:12) signifies that a distinguished, wicked and most powerful chief of the people jumped up to kill the she-camel. He was supported by his tribe (nation)''

[Muslim Book 40, Chapter 13, Hadith # 6837].

Lesson: as mentioned above in Surah Al-Qamar Ayat 29. But they called their comrade and he took (a sword) and killed (her)" When the entire nation is involved in sinful activities and there are very few pious people left then Allah sent down the signs of warning, and to make them afraid (of destruction).
